Townhall.com “Scraping the Bottom of the Barrel” for Michelle Malkin

A few months ago, Townhall contributor and right-wing pundit Michelle Malkin attacked Air America for raising money through pledge drives. Here’s what she wrote:

Al Franken’s liberal radio network, Air America, is now scraping the bottom of the barrel for investors. Having taxed the patience of deep-pocketed liberal sugar daddies, Air America execs have cooked up a new campaign to hit up their own listeners for cash donations.

You might be surprised to learn that pledge drives prop up Malkin’s work. Her columns are featured on the conservative website Townhall.com, which has started their fall pledge drive.
